Hello All!  
I’ve done the tutorial on XML photo gallery and everything works great! However, because I normally program my flash sites to be full browser, I need to place everything inside movieclips so I can manage their positioning through actionscript. Now, When I place the XML Gallery inside a movieclip, the thumbnails no longer scroll for some reason. They only show the masked area and that’s it. Again, this only happens when the gallery is placed inside a movieclip which leads me to believe there needs to be a modification to the actionscript code provided by [Kirupa.com](http://Kirupa.com). If someone could show me how to modify the code, this would be fabulous. Thank you and blessings to all!
